Old Glock guy 1,125 Posted May 1, 2020 The situation in Canada proves that gun grabbers won't be satisfied until all guns are banned. To my understanding, Canada already has every law on the wishlist of Moms Demand, Every Town, and others like that, including universal background checks, magazine capacity limits, and possibly even a registry(?). Still, every time a shooting occurs, they decree that more laws are necessary. Anyone know what the recent mass shooter in Nova Scotia used? Was it an MSR?

I did see a report that almost half of those murdered in the attack were killed by arson. Using their same logic, why aren't they banning matches and lighters? Nobody needs that many matches. High capacity lighters. Outright ban of road flares. One flame a month. Common sense match laws are what is needed here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I looked at seven articles from Canada, the US and UK and I could only find that he used a handgun, a rifle and a shotgun. No specifics were given. This is Canada's response to a rampage by a deranged RCMP wannabe who did not own one single firearm legally. So, fuck the law abiding I guess. Free healthcare though, if you live long enough to get treated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handyman 5,682 Posted May 1, 2020 Canadians? They are the worst of both worlds: Frenchie-Limeys. And into socialism to boot. Too bad they are such an icy hell. This would have made it much easier to invade. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pasu0115 200 Posted May 1, 2020 Articles I read didn't identify what gun(s)the subject used, but it was thought that he did procure some of the guns from the Mountie that he killed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Screwball 483 Posted May 2, 2020 Guns used were a shotgun... which he likely acquired in the US illegally. After he killed the RCMP officer, he was in possession of her sidearm and rifle. He did not have any firearms license in Canada. Suspect also had ties to the town where our port is located. I personally want to see them start arguing about us carrying our duty guns while in Canada; whether we are transporting someone back to CBSA or heading thru Canada to one of our outports. COVID is getting them all worried about us crossing, so I’m sure more US guns are going to be discussed. When this went down, I was sitting on the border for Border Patrol... in an area where they had previous situations where they believe drugs were handed off. Pretty much, a US road dead ends, and a Canadian road run parallel to that road and the border (maybe 10’ apart). Came back to the port to talk with my supervisor... who said he was about to run another officer with an M4 due to the situation, but found out the suspect was dead before they got out there. Gave me the rundown of the events. Sort of pissed me off, since RCMP stopped by and talked for about 30 minutes prior to this... and suspect was impersonating an RCMP officer. Great communication...

oldguysrule649 397 Posted May 2, 2020 For your reading displeasure, check out some of threads on www.canadiangunnutz.com to read the first hand reaction of Canadian gun owners to this act of tyranny. They appear to be far more powerless than we are here to push back on something like this. Our 2nd Amendment protections matter more than ever, lest we become like Canada over time. Hopefully we will find out Monday whether Scotus will do the right thing to restore and protect it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

njJoniGuy 2,129 Posted May 2, 2020 And here's the list: http://gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p2/2020/2020-05-01-x3/pdf/g2-154x3.pdf A quick look at this POS document shows pretty much EVERY AR platform rifle ever marketed. The list also includes the Beretta Storm series of carbines. Notably absent (at least to my reading) are the HiPoint carbines. It also appears that both uppers and lowers are included in the ban. Fidel's son has really done it this time. I hope it comes back to bite him in the balls, just like when Brad Pitt's dog 'acts defensively' near the end of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It depends if they have a leg to stand on, and if the legislature agrees with Trudeau. It will be a waste of resources if they're on the ban bus as well, but I'd start with that before giving something else a "shot". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

njJoniGuy 2,129 Posted May 4, 2020 To quote a Canadian on Arfcom today: "i'm of the opinion that we can't vote ourselves out of the issues Canada currently faces and we don't have free speech, so no soap box we got one box left, and two years to use it to some extent or another" So no ballot box, no soap box, and that only leaves the ammo box. Coming to our own country next time the Dims win the electoral trifecta. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
